Hulu Introduces Ad-Free Streaming Plan

In another effort to compete with ad-free competitors like Netflix and Amazon, Hulu announced this week that they will now offer customers an ad-free streaming subscription option for $11.99/month (compared to $7.99/month with ads). According to Hulu CEO Mike Hopkins, "There's a whole set of customers that we saw in the research and in the metrics that aren't interested if we have advertising. It's definitely something we're doing to be more competitive in the marketplace." Read more about Hulu's new ad-free model here.
